Intro to PIlates

You go to the gym and someone who looks about 12 shows you what to do?

​But who shows you how to use the most important piece of equipment, your own body?

If you have been sat at a keyboard all day, do you want to go and do a ton of Curl Ups? Or do you want to try lengthening up and bring back strength to your spine? You can improve your posture and alignment AND have a strong core (that's the 'Abdominal' bit)

Modern life is demanding and requires long working hours, much of those sitting down. It is vital that we balance our exercises properly and focus. Life's impact on your joints is showing sooner than ever before. Poor posture makes us look older than we are.

Intro to Pilates - (Leave the music at home and listen to your body)

Our Intro to Pilates classes will get you thinking about exercise in a different way. You'll be shown how to listen to your body during exercise, not just listen to workout playlists. Because, If you want to improve posture, flexibility and fitness you must understand your body and avoid bad movement habits.

You'll be taken through the important principles of Pilates along with mindful exercises that work the whole body. The pace is reasonably gentle but you might find core muscles being worked that you didn't know you had! Experience an exercise technique that improves your joints, tones up muscles and creates core control that has knock on effects for all aspects of daily living. Once you know the basics, you can't unlearn them and all activities improve not just your exercise regime.
